UFC 285 poster released

The UFC has released the official event poster for UFC 285, and Jon Jones’ heavyweight debut looms large.

After three years on the sidelines, Jones returns to the octagon with the aim of adding another UFC title to his collection. Following the exit of heavyweight champ Francis Ngannou, “Bones” fights for the vacant heavyweight title against former interim champ Ciryl Gane.

UFC 285 takes place March 4 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The main card airs live on ESPN+ pay-per-view.

Here is the UFC 285 poster.

Jones relinquished the light heavyweight title he thrice held in anticipation of a move to heavyweight. Ngannou originally was his expected opponent, but both fighters clashed with the UFC behind the scenes over pay and contract demands.

Gane is coming into the fight after a knockout win over Tai Tuivasa, which put him back on the right foot after a loss to Ngannou for the heavyweight belt at UFC 270.

In the co-main event of UFC 285, flyweight champ Valentina Shevchenko defends against Alexa Grasso.
